CHICKEN WITH MUSTARD CREAM SAUCE
Steps:
- Place chicken breast under plastic wrap and flatten using mallet, rolling pin, or a glass bottle. Season breasts with salt and pepper. In heated skillet add olive oil and butter. Add chicken and cook over a medium heat until golden brown on both sides. Remove chicken to a plate and cover with foil to keep warm. Add scallions and garlic to same skillet. Saute quickly and add white wine. Boil rapidly and reduce to syrup. Add cream and mustard, stir. Return chicken breast to pan and simmer gently until just heated through.
Tips:
- Mise en place: Before you start cooking, make sure you have all your ingredients and tools ready. This will help you stay organized and prevent any scrambling.
- Choose the right chicken breasts: Boneless, skinless chicken breasts are the best choice for this recipe. They cook quickly and evenly, and they're easy to slice.
- Use fresh herbs: Fresh herbs add a lot of flavor to this dish. If you don't have fresh herbs on hand, you can use dried herbs, but use only half the amount.
- Don't overcrowd the pan: When searing the chicken breasts, don't overcrowd the pan. This will prevent them from cooking evenly.
- Cook the chicken breasts over medium heat: Medium heat is the best way to cook the chicken breasts. This will help them cook through without burning them.
- Don't overcook the chicken breasts: Overcooked chicken breasts are tough and dry. Cook them just until they are cooked through, about 5-7 minutes per side.
- Make sure the sauce is thick enough: The sauce should be thick enough to coat the chicken breasts. If it's too thin, add a little cornstarch or flour. If it's too thick, add a little milk or cream.
- Serve the chicken breasts immediately: Chicken breasts are best served immediately after they are cooked. This will help them stay juicy and tender.
Conclusion:
This chicken breasts with herb-mustard-mushroom cream sauce is a delicious and easy-to-make dish that is perfect for a weeknight meal. The chicken breasts are seared until golden brown and then simmered in a creamy sauce made with fresh herbs, mustard, and mushrooms. Serve over rice, pasta, or mashed potatoes for a complete meal.
